Bed & Breakfast Pax Tibi

It was clean friendly, and I felt very at home

The communication was clear and very sociable. Breakfast was very good and in a farm environment. The animals on the property make it a small amusing zoo. Amazing that such a quiet place can be found in such a busy surrounding. More Dutch than this water land peat area cannot be found. We ate at Happz a good restaurant 1000 m away.

Walking over the dikes needs attention to too fast cars. A speed limit to 30 kmph or even less would be appropriate. Shopping needs a bicycle.

First of all, Katja is the perfect hostess. She met us at check in, answered all our questions, and offered a lot of information for sightseeing in the area. She also met us every morning with a smile and a very delightful breakfast, which she also adjusted to the taste and preferences of each of us. Since we had to leave for the airport very early on the last day, she made us boxes with sandwiches (again, customized for each of us), fruit, snacks and juice. The rooms are cleaned and made up every day, which is not common in many B&Bs. The place is very very clean and the location is beautiful and allows you to get to many attractions around the Netherlands. The view from the rooms is also very nice -meadows with animals and canals.

Nothing, is was all good.

Lovely setting. Owner is a delight. We used this spot as a starter for day trips. It was great. A pleasant spot on this earth.

Better pillows.

Lovely to see a different way of living in this country. Warm, welcoming. Kind host. Excellent breakfasts.

Was too far from places, 30 minutes to each of them.

Very warm welcoming, excellent room with great views on the water, exceptionally clean with all necessary amenities, quiet and very cosy, perfect breakfast on time. Great experience in all 3 days, fully enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful location, clean and comfortable.

Nothing

Very clean room. Delicious breakfast. Lovely hospitality (apart from check-in incident). There are some cute animals there. Parking is free. Reasonable price. Clean towels.

No clear sign for reception area. I came in and the host seemed surprised that i came in, said that i came to her own home. I thought this was a hotel, and the sign was not that clear at all. Host told me its rude to come inside people's houses, but thing is; i came to a hotel, as a paying customer, looking to check in after a very long flight, so why would i come into a house in a village/town that is surrounded by nature and other houses? (Nearest supermarket was 10 minutes by car). Anyways, i apologized when i didnt even need to apologize, but i wanted to calm the host down. Later, she never apologized to me for her reaction, and never apologized for lack of proper signs. Check in was 4 pm, i came almost 3:45 i think, and i was told that i am very early. I think i was supposed to stay in the street for 15 minutes, come on, hospitality can be improved here, you dont say that to a customer coming from the airport, especially when the hotel is not full and room is ready anyways! Although the host was very nice afterwards and gave me some lovely stroopwaffeles during check out, but that check in incident truly made me hate my stay in Netherlands. Mind you, this was my 1st hotel experience which lasted 3 days, and as of now i completed almost 3 weeks in this country (went to Hague, Amsterdam, Rotterdam & Giethoorn), but that incident truly left a bad taste for me here, and i cant wait to finish my 4 weeks business trip here to go back home. Back home in hotels, we dont call our hotel guests rude, we dont attack their cultures, we welcome them and dont make them feel as house intruders, they are paying customers and we respect them. From the bottom of my heart, i hope no one ever faces this and feels the same way i felt. I was nice enough, but in the inside i was deeply hurt. I even suggested at check in time that if the host is not comfortable with me, i can easily cancel my booking and go to another hotel, but she said there is no need.
